An exceptional, large onsen over 6 floors. Every aspect was excellent including front desk and restaurant service; the tatami rooms and bedding; the outstanding quality and variety of dinner, the shared public bath and location. Very happy customer.

The food was very good. It is indeed a hotel famous for its cuisine. The facilities are also pretty good. You can also go to Wanggui Cave for free. However, although it is not far to go to Wanggui Cave by boat, it takes 2 hours to take a bath, so it cannot be combined with the first dinner after checking in, so we went to Wanggui Cave the next morning. You can drive or walk to Wanggui Cave. In short, it’s easy to see the map.

I chose this inn because the food was delicious. The rice is delicious. Customer service is also pleasant. The room is clean. Close to Nachi Taisha and waterfall by car. The accommodation was convenient for transportation.You can choose from meals ranging from those who eat a lot to those who eat little, and the drinks were a great success ^_^

I decided to stay because many people had highly praised the food in the reviews, but I was disappointed, probably because I had high expectations.I was expecting some freshly made local fish for dinner, but instead it was an assortment of 4 types: (1) lean yellowfin tuna, (2) an arrangement of the same fish, (3) red sea bream, and (4) agar yose.I will avoid mentioning the soy sauce dish here (those staying in the hotel in the summer may notice this).The happy miscalculation was that the abalone grilled on a ceramic plate, which I wasn't expecting, was delicious despite its simple flavor of butter and lemon (I wonder if it was fresh enough).Breakfast was like shark.

I stayed at the inn by myself, but they were very kind to me.You can also use the hot springs at Hotel Urashima (I did), but Chiyo-no-Yu is a relaxing place to soak, probably because there aren't many guests staying there.You will be asked when to have breakfast at 7:00, 7:30, or 8:00, and you will be able to cook the rice in a special pot at that time.Unfortunately, Wi-Fi often cuts out and authentication may be required.Luggage storage is possible even after check-out.I would like to stay again.24'08 P.S.Wi-Fi has gotten much better now that we have dedicated Wi-Fi.

There is nothing to say about breakfast and dinner. We also enjoyed drinking alcohol. Considering the size of the bathroom, it seemed to be well-equipped and spacious. I was glad I didn't choose Urashima. I'm glad I chose Kaiseki, where the customer base was good and I could enjoy a quiet meal.

I don't often go on overnight trips, so I don't have much to compare it to, but I have no problems with this accommodation. The ryokan also has a bath, but it seems that they are affiliated with the hotel, so you can also use the cave bath at the nearby Hotel Urashima, and you can also take the ferry and change into a yukata. Beverage vending machines have reasonable prices and free Wi-Fi, so you can record your travels. The size of the yukata is designed with foreign travelers in mind, and there are also extra-large ones for people over 175 cm, so you don't have to worry about it.

To be clear, Manseiro is my regular lodging in Nachikatsuura Town, which I trust 100%.Although the facility is undeniably old, its location, hospitality, quality of food, and customer service are top notch!This is a great inn that Mononov, a wandering samurai, can confidently recommend.
